Definitions
- the present invention relates to an improved brick or building block that would lend itself very favourably to both the professional building industry and amateur building construction fields alike.
- (a) be constructed in such a manner as to facilitate its easy and quick use in building operations by way of its self aligning characteristics.
- FIG.1 is a plan view of a brick according to the invention.
- FIG.2 is a view of the bottom thereof.
- FIG.3 is a side elevation
- FIG.4 is an end elevation.
- FIG.5 is a perspective view of a seperate dovetail locking piece.
- the preferred form of the invention consists of a brick similar in shape and size to a standard house brick.
- the bricks are joined both horizontally and vertically.
- the void space between the cavities (11a and 11b) is large enough to accommodate the placing of one brick over the protruding dovetail section of brick below.
- a brick so laid, is then able to be slid along horizontally to lock with two adjacent bricks below, in the half brick spacing position.
- the end faces (13) of the brick that has to form the end of a building or structure may be formed without the dovetail cavity, and left either plain or with some decorative feature as may the side faces (15).
- Bricks according to the invention may be produced by moulding from concrete or other suitable material provided that they can be formed with sufficient accuracy to enable sliding engagement of the dovetail parts to be effected.
- a brick When a brick is placed on top of another it will be appreciated that since the sides (15) overlap the top and bottom abutting surfaces a perfect weatherproof seal is made; this is also the case for the ends (13).
- the design of this weathersealing quality has been such that a gap will remain around the perimeter of the brick face (15) which also gives it a rendered look, similar to that of conventional bricks and mortar.
- any structure be constructed with bricks according to the invention then the strength of that structure will be enhanced in that there is a positive engagement between adjacent bricks and that reliance is not placed simply on a layer of mortar between them.
- the embodiment of the invention described above is given by way of example only and as will be readily appreciated a wide variety of different forms and sizes of bricks and building blocks may be constructed within the scope of the invention as defined in the succeeding claims. Also half bricks may be constructed and used in the normal manner. Corner bricks however will require modification to allow the locking piece to fit into one of the side faces (15) (leaving an end face (13) blank). When insufficient sliding space is available for laying the last brick on a corner of a structure the dovetail section of the brick immediately below will require removal, and mortar added.

Abstract
Brique ou bloc de construction en forme de parallélépipède rectangulaire ayant sur ses faces supérieure et inférieure une section en queue d'aronde mâle (10) et une section en queue d'aronde femelle (11a et 11b), respectivement. La construction est telle que la queue d'aronde mâle (10) d'une brique ou bloc peut coulisser dans la cavité en queue d'aronde (11a ou 11b) d'une autre brique ou d'un bloc lorsqu'ils sont placés l'un sur l'autre. La brique ou bloc possède des faces latérales plates (15) et une rainure en queue d'aronde formée dans chaque face extrême (13) s'étendant sur toute la profondeur de la brique ou bloc pour les verrouiller également en bout à bout en utilisant une pièce spéciale de verrouillage (14).
